Description
Summary:The data of scientific literature on various aspects of the treatment of patients with deformities and defects of the calcaneus for the period from 1976 to 2015. Basic search and selection of publications conducted using PubMed search engine and eLIBRARY. The aim of the study was a comparative analysis of current approaches to the treatment of these patients with the study of the role, place, opportunities and prospects of application technologies of reconstructive microsurgery. It was established that the key challenges for the treatment of patients with lesions of the calcaneus is to achieve stable remission of the infectious process, the maximum possible recovery of the biomechanical properties of the hindfoot and creation, thus, opportunities for achieving a normal gait stereotype. Their solution was developed and proposed to use the set of fundamentally different in its essence surgical techniques. But the possibility of the practical use of most of them are limited to the unfavorable state of the soft tissues of the heel and the heel bone, and often - and its complete absence. Technology reconstructive microsurgery, despite its complexity, high cost and large labor intensity, today represents the most effective means of solving these problems.
